Get Over It

Okay....

I'll do it, as well. I have a good poem. It's about a relationship I had with a guy who was my friend for years and I always wanted it to be more and finally I just had to realize it was time to give up.

Scratch that. I'll write a new one.

Inanity

I watched you from the darkness
My eyes encased in shame
Trying just to show you
That, for you, I would be tame

My footsteps made no sound
as feet barely touched the floor
Sneaking past your silhouette
though I longed to ask for more

Keeping still my feeble heart
I was trying just to breathe
But every time you looked at me
the swords of thought were sheathed

And then you came to know me
as I bid your every wish
Drooling as a helpless dog
I filled your every dish

All I needed was your smile
All I craved was your embrace
But every time, you let me rot
In the entrapment of your face

For years I crawled behind you
The subject of your game
But every second feeling used
Your smile erased my pain

Until the day I found your lips
A sudden, shocking ecstacy
Locked in final bliss with mine
This, the end of my inanity

When days passed and all I felt
was upon my lips, your dark abyss
Denied to all, and I, the fool
The silent scar you left me with

The silent hoping never voiced
consumed my heart, stole my pain
So from off my knees and to my feet
I stood alone, against the rain

You never noticed, never knew
But you don't have to, I am through
To light of sky, from dark of den
You'll never use THIS fool again

The word i think you were using is inSanity....right? If you could just make that correction. I love your poem!

ANY MORE ENTRIES???

Nope, it's inanity. it's a synonym for stupidity or absurdity.

Didn't say if we had to reserve or not so here is mine.

Suddenly
By: Twisted Heart

It suddenly occurred to me, my love was not returned
From depths to deep inside of me, for you my heart did yearn
You'd smile at me so tenderly, I knew my love you felt
And when you put your hands on me, my heart and soul would melt

A simple kiss upon my cheek, was more than I could ask
The twinkle in your eye would creep and to my soul it would attach
I'd see you in the distant light upon my mind you'd be
But all the little kindnesses were for someone else not me.

Each day was a beginning, brand new time to show to you
My heart for you was pounding, thumping loudly, strong and true
Sweet days have turned to months but still you hold me back
Within the fiber of you heart, room for me you lack.

So suddenly, I see it clear, my love for you unshared
It's only me, who has this love, it's only me who really cares.
To think about a future seems too futile and so wrong
So I'll just pack my heart up tight and I'll be moving on.

She's Finally Over You

She washes the makeup off her pillowcase
As the lines of stress melt off her face
All the letters, tucked away in her drawer
She promises not to look at anymore

All the memories float around her head
As with anything he ever had said
She collects them all and holds them in her hand
She knows now, and now she can understand

She gently places them into a box in that drawer
Another thing she promises not to look at anymore
She glances around her little space
As the hurt and pain is slowly being replaced

No more waiting, spending countless nights alone
No more useless stares at the telephone
She's ready to move on, to leave the past behind
To search for true love, just something, to find

She laughs at his memory; she laughs at his fun
She thinks to herself, "What's done is done."
She removes the pictures of the two of them together
How funny it seems, when you believe in forever

Into a box, a final spot to rest
No more memories scattered around like a mess
She turns to her mirror, her image is shocking
She never knew the beauty that he was blocking

Those dark blue eyes, always hidden behind tears
The lines on her face, created by fears
No more worrying about things, known never to come true
She's not waiting for wishes or any dreams of you

She's smiling now, what a change to her face
Like a magical gift, in her hands, has been placed
She has confidence now, no more worrying about stuff
She ended her heartache, enough was enough

So she places the box inside the drawer
And as she locks it, there's no pain to ignore
She was afraid it might be hard, but she got over it
She's a fighter who was not about to quit

Now that she doesn't have to keep her masquerade
There's no need for her sweet charade
Times change and most people to do
But one things for sure, She's Finally Over You

Mk ill try

I love all my entries! Keep em coming!

Little April Shower

My mouth says vibrations,
I never felt I'd do,
My heart heavy, breaking,
With all I think of you,

Little April shower,
The pain runs dry,
Although there is no rain,
But all the tears I cry,

Your soul trembles,
As your hands start to shake,
I feel you start to wilt,
As your heart's about to break,

Falling to this pit,
Where ice takes hold,
Darkness caves in,
And you turn cold,

You fade in the wind,
And my voice trails,
Your wings broken,
Again I will fail,

I see blood fall,
Forever we won't part,
Our vowes hold strong,
No longer lonely hearts.

What the hell, i'll post one...

Xx Never Let You Know xX

I fell in love with you,
But i never let you know.
Every time you waved goodbye,
I wished you wouldn't go.

It was a special feeling,
That i always had to hide.
I had to keep it in my heart,
I had to bury it inside.

I hid my secret very well,
Over so many years
You were my best friend all that time,
Through the laughter and the tears.

When you got a girlfriend,
I tried so hard to stay strong.
I acted pleased and happy for you,
Even though it felt so wrong.

My friends told me i had to,
Let you know just how i feel.
But i couldn't ruin out friendship,
That i knew was real.

You see i fell in love with you,
But i can never let you know.
It's cos you mean so much to me,
That i'm going to let you go...

(A simple poem, cos it's a simple situation)

Never thought of it as a "simple" situation...wow! New perspective! Thanks for the entry!
Charisma*

I'm hoping for some more entries...so maybe after a couple more!
Charisma*

Charisma*

Hey, I wanna try

Ill have mine in by tonight, if thats okay!

Sure sounds great everyone! I'm excited to see them all!
Charisma*

I will give it a go! :]

Come and gone

I used to say we were meant to be
It all seemed so real
Then reality hit me between the eyes
I didn't know how to heal

I erased every memory I had of you
Whether it was good or bad
Not seeing your face even once a month
Well..it actually made me mad

I was tired of covering up the pain
And holding everything back
I may have gained a little strength
But it was confidence I lacked

So the other day I saw you
And something inside me cried
As I calmly walked towards you
I just said 'hello' and smiled

It sounds so silly how one simple move
Could change my point of view
Because after that day all I wanted
Was JUST to be friends with you

No more wishing on that shooting star
Or trying to change God's plans
With a little patience, I surely hope
Things will end like they began

Two people together with a common goal
Of getting to know one another
So forget that whole romance thing -
He could be like an older brother

Every once in a while I think
There may be a chance of something more
But I come to my senses, and along with the thought
My insanity is thrown out the door

Can i enter this? i wanna try.

Go ahead!!! The more the merrier!
Charisma*

Great everyone! Please enter them soon. The closing date will be posted in a day or two!

Ahh. Edit. Just reread the rules,
I wrote the wrong kind of poem.
I`ll get started now.

This is a poem I recently wrote ~ I hope this counts :-/ ~ It's about having a guy want you but rejecting him because you don't believe him, then realizing how much you do want and need the guy but thats its just to late...

Karma
By: Dreamgurl

I remember when you were the one chasing after me
You wanted me so bad and I just couldn't understand why
I figured it was just wanting what you can't have
So all your attempts ended with a deny

You flattered me constantly with your words
Made me almost believe you meant them with your actions
Yet everytime you told me how much you wanted me
I gave you the same exact reaction

I told you I didn't feel the same and that we could never be
I wished that you would just leave me alone
Until that fateful day came when you actually did
And somehow afterwards I felt empty to the bone

I realized it was all a lie
And that I had been supressing my real feelings for you
I didn't want to let you in because I was afraid
I was afraid you wouldn't love me if you only knew

I didn't want you to find out who I really was
Not the cheerful, happy girl I strive so hard to portray
But the girl filled with problems and confusion
The girl who struggles to survive day by day

It seems pushing you away backfired
Because you left when I needed you the most here with me
And I know deep down you aren't coming back
Not after everything I did to get you to see

To see that I didn't want you, didn't need you
But it was all a lie created in my head
Now I realize what they mean by to little, to late
As I lie here thinking about you in my bed

I don't understand how I'm crying for you
When you were just here begging me to stay
You never asked of anything from me
Except that I feel the same way

You just wanted me to love you
And I did! I loved you...I still do
You spent your nights dreaming about us
And now I spend my nights dreaming about you

I live in dreams because I'll never have you in reality
I know it's because I just wouldn't accept the truth, couldn't give in
I refused to show someone the real me
And now I lie here thinking about everything that could've been...

I have decided to close the contest. The winner is ....

Dreamgurl!!!

After reading her poem, I just knew that's what I've been looking for, but everyone's poems meant something to me in a different way...touched a different part of my life and my heart, and for that, I thank you all!

Please leave the comments you would like Dreamgurl!
